Also I have silver sauder for Jewelry repair.. What would you use that for in stained glass? I know they sell it at my glass shop!! But have always heard that it is way to soft for projects..

OP Cliver_McGyver Member C Joined: Dec 2006 Calgary	The glass fits in to the U came about 3/16 of an inch, and the lead is soldiered to it. I use 50/50 lead tin alloy soldier, it is a eutectic (u-tech-tic) alloy meaning that it will melt at a lower temp then either metal when combined.
